A Warm Welcome to the Venue

We created a warm welcome in the lobby with a navy sign with floral details which tied into the vibrant color palette perfectly. We love the idea of welcome drinks, so we used our built-in shelves to hold lavender lemonade. We also had favors on the shelves which were shrubs from The Bar. Shrubs are vinegar-based syrups made with fruit or berries that can be mixed with liquor or soda water for a refreshing drink. To tie into the South Asian wedding inspiration, we placed a gold Ganesha statue at the front.

South Asian Wedding Details

We went with a color palette of orange, pink, blue, purple, and gold for this South Asian wedding inspired styled shoot. For the ceremony space, we started with a stunning drapery treatment using bright pops of color from our color palette. We paired it with uplighting to really highlight the area. We also added a light pink sofa, vibrant pillows, and a bold patterned rug to bring in more color. For accents, we chose gold side tables, colorful flowers in gold lavoisier flower vases, gold lanterns hanging from vines, and hanging garlands of flowers and beads.

Vibrant Pops of Color

For the reception space, we continued the bold color palette starting with the table cloths. Each table had a different colored table cloth which paired beautifully with gold chargers and ornate candles. For the centerpieces, we chose colorful floral arrangements on top of gold rectangular stands. We also placed white elephants in the stands to add an additional South Asian wedding touch. We loved how the vibrant pops of color looked in the space!

We had so much fun coordinating this Boho + Mehndi/Garba inspired styled shoot! We loved all the South Asian wedding touches we got to incorporate to customize this space. One of our favorite things about hosting weddings is seeing how each couple transforms our space based on their needs, from guest list size to cultural traditions to hosting multiple events during a wedding weekend. We have a lot of experience in this department, so if you’re looking for a space to accommodate your wedding, we’d love to help you navigate it all!
